Ah, I see. Kind of like a magnetic reaction that raises up in opposition?

I'd be interested in reading any of your papers at some point.

I don't think there can be an objective definition of good and evil. I have felt and still do that there are only varying degrees of good. Which is subjective, but what else is there besides subjectivity with concepts that are not physical?

Thank you for saying you'd read my papers! cheerful This paper would be 24 years old now (and I think I finally let it go into the great recycle bin). I had taken a course in Philosophy right out of high school and was amazed at the first lecture to learn that there was an area of study where people debated about whether God exists and other amazing stuff (stuff I always thought about for which my family implied made me crazy nuts).

When I started to actually try to properly philosophize though...it was hard and I was confused. It took me a long time to get my paper done. But it stuck with me so strongly, the brilliant concept of subjectivity as the reason that good cannot be defined. Though at the time and far into the future, I still did not know of the actual term subjectivity. And I ended up dropping out of school and doing stupid human stuff for about 10 years. I wasted my time, but I had no one around me that thought the same or could guide me or even provide a reasonable example of enlightenment (with the exception of some academic teachers, but they could not give me their time outside of class). So I just floated in a sea of stupid human stuff thinking, Oh man, is this all there is? sigh2

To my understanding the question is redundant for one of the paths to begin with. Also it may be self evident to a degree with communications so far and you are also learning to see with your own eyes - so redundant in three ways.

I'm not sure what you mean in the first sentence. Or do you mean it is redundant for the STO path because it is comprised of nearly 50/50? If so, even so, it is still a very specific path compared to the alternative. I think you are STS. But I fear you are STO. [Typing that and releasing the pressure of the underlying fear just elicted a wave of emotion from me sad].

I don't know how you can do all those quotes when I can only do 4?! scratchhead

Re: Soul anger, you said "Imbalanced STS expression". I don't know what you mean. To me those three words could be interpreted in numerous ways. Will you explain it to me please?
